From "Marriage Index: New Jersey, 1680-1900" (FTM CD #240) by Broderbund Software in 1998: BEGIN Kishpaugh, Charles Crawn, Fanny Jul 6, 1833 Sussex END transcription of Newspapers->Misc->19.21ch-xi.jpg From a local newspaper dated September 8, 1909: BEGIN A forest fire burned on Blue Mountain near Sucker Pond last week and a large number of men fought it. They thought it was out for a day or two but yesterday it was reported blazing more fiercely than before from John Crawn's to Sand Pond and it probably won't be extinguished until it meets the Millbrook road. David Kishpaugh, while fighting the fire, was bitten by a rattle snake. The snake was at once killed and its body bound around the wound, this being a recognized treatment for snake bites. Another favorite remedy is a large quid of tobacco saturated with whiskey applied to the wound and liberal libations of the latter taken internally. Kishpaugh, by the way, was not fatally injured. END transcription of Newspapers->Deaths->19.21ch-xi.jpg From a local newspaper dated January 12, 1910: BEGIN David Kishpaugh of Suckers Pond met death Monday by being pinned to the ground under a large tree. He made his living primarily by woodchopping and on Monday was at work in the woods a quarter of a mile from his home. About 10:00 in the morning his dog came home, and Mrs. Kishpaugh let him in. He was whining and acting strangely but she paid no attention. At noon when her husband did not return Mrs. Kishpaugh started to look for him. A neighbor, Daniel Yetter, saw her wading through the deep snow and offered to go in her place. He found Mr. Kishpaugh lying on the ground with a 20' tree across his neck. He had probably been dead for two hours and death must have been instantaneous. He was 55 and had been born in Flatbrookville, the son of Charles Kishpaugh. His wife was the former Libbie Ogden. END
